Novel biallelic variant in BBS9 causative of Bardet–Biedl syndrome: expanding the spectrum of disease-causing genetic alterations

Abstract Background Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a rare autosomal recessive ciliopathy disorder. Many BBS disease-causing genetic variants have been identified due to the advancement of molecular diagnostic tools. We report on a novel pathogenic variant in a consanguineous Pakistani family with an...
